General Comment

What we liked about the curriculum:
basic idea is to use popular culture and the music our youth listen to in order to communicate our UU principles. The worship service that our youth created was very thoughtful and made it clear that they "got the message" even more than we had hoped. The teachers who led the class all agreed that the students responded to this course better than any they had ever taught before with this age group.
Recommendations for other users:
encourage teachers not to follow the curriculum rigidly but to take the central idea and let the youth run with it. Use as a guideline, not as a road map.
